Dizzle Morrison - The Cave [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Intro:
I was born in chains where the shadows cast
Figurines for beings under the hour glass
Broke free went through the fire and followed path
To a place I could reflect on being free at last
Goodbye ignorance

Verse 1:
Only God could have brought me to this
But I didn't know that it was going to cost me my bliss
Cost me kisses from chicks and hand slaps from my nigs
Cause it took me from the cool crowd to the misfits
What is this? I come back to set us free, tell us everything I've seen
Expand on our beliefs, lessons to lessen grief, fruit from the wisdom tree
A boost so we can see over walls we never breached
An extra inch to reach the evidence we seek
The messages never preached and what the symbols mean
Thought I'd be blessed and cherished for sharing the esoteric
Now I'm standing here embarrassed at how foolish I seem
Cause they're like

NIGGA PLEASE...
Sit yo' cray ass down and hit this tree
We hate science, math, and geometry and if WE
Want to hear 'bout stars we got TV
All we saying is, how you rap won't get you major my nig
Trivium, quadrivium, what you majored in Trig
We know triggers and how they squeeze, not trigonometry
But if we want to hear that bullshit leave it to Dizz

(Talking)

Verse 2:
I'm standing here spellbound, I can't understand how
God's people can live so aggressively hell bound
Hated from hair down to the bottom of calloused feet
Unconcerned with calories bringing our health down
So much po-tential, but po' mentals
Got us in life's scantron test with no pencil
Got us with air pistols up against air missiles
Everything that they air causes terror it's there to pit you
Up against human nature, negative energy
Breeding with fertile minds birthing more negativity
Heathens reciting lines turning neighbors to enemies
And if we're all enemies there can never be synergy
(fading: and if there's no synergy there can never be harmony)
OKAY we get it Dizz, but it's fate it just is what it is
You gotta get yours and I gotta get for me and my kids
I'm gone do what I gotta do, if it ain't involving you
Then why the hell you care 'bout how I'm making my ends
Yeah I rap about stupid shit, be on the block moving bricks
Pimping on hoes, or running through all the groupie chicks
But I'm making a living, so I ain't seeing your vision
Motherfuck Knowledge and Wisdom if it ain't paying rent

(Talking)

Verse 3:
Well okay... But what if I have something to say
What do you gain from all of the destruction you paint
Minimal pay and loss of what the Creator gave
Theater ways, you got to act like something you ain't
That ain't the life you want is it?
If so just disregard my whole visit I'll bother you none
(I heard) enough of the enlightenment, light up a blunt
You been different ever since you came up out of the Sun
Into the cave

(Talking)
